Nao Kakuta will be at Yoshiko Hasegawa’s graduation show as a special guest commentator. Another special guest will be Teppei Arita, a Japanese comedian who has written several books about pro wrestling and also hosts his own Youtube series about current stories from around the industry. In fact Hasegawa was interviewed on a recent episode that was uploaded last week.

BASARA “BASARA 283 ~UTAGE~”, 08/07/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Daiki Shimomura Vs Takeru Inoue
2. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Gouma Ryu Vs Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
3. Daichi Kazato & Munetatsu Nakamura Vs SAGAT & Minoru Fujita
4. Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Takato Nakano
5. Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ayumu Honda Vs Masato Kamino, Lil’ Kraken & Fuminori Abe

Last month Ayumu Honda joined forces with Hyakusho Ikki even though he didn’t really want to. Blame Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi for that. We’ll see how much of a united force they can be in a few days time.

GANBARE☆PRO “WILD AT HEART 2025”, 19/07/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Moeka Haruhi & Yuna Manase Vs Makoto & Chika

4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Mizuki Watase & Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Toru Sugiura & Munetatsu Nakamura

High hopes are fueling Toru Sugiura & Munetatsu Nakamura’s challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles. Nakamura would have gotten injured by Mizuki Watase last month if it wasn’t for Sugiura throwing in the towel. Watase gets needing to preserve yourself for the big title match but he and Shigehiro Irie want the challengers to not say die once the actual match takes place.

Bad tension is building up between YuuRI and Mio Shirai. Will it spill over into something worse when they have their singles match?

Chika is coming over from Pro Wrestling Evolution.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25”, 21/07/2025
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Andreza Giant Panda & Raku Vs Kyoko Inoue & Pom Harajuku
2. Special Tag Match: El Desperado & Maki Itoh Vs Chris Brookes & Emi Sakura
3. Special Single Match: Miyu Yamashita Vs Billie Starkz
4. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Moka Miyamoto
5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Yuki Arai

What’s the most chaotic pair of opponents you can find for Chris Brookes & Emi Sakura? How about El Desperado & Maki Itoh! The two originally met in America while working the same GCW show and have been tweeting back and forth for a while about teaming up. Now looks like the perfect time to make it happen. Itoh wants Desperado to learn the Itoh Respect Army dance for their entrance. He didn’t expect that to be part of the deal.

TJPW say a health issue is preventing Max The Impaler from participating at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” so Pom Harajuku needs a new tag team partner. Luckily for her TJPW has decided to bring in Kyoko Inoue as the replacement! The joshi legend currently wrestles for Diana, a promotion that just so happened to join the UJPW recently so I wonder if that new connection helped put this deal together.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~UENO KITEKITE DAI SAKUSEN~”, 26/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Miu Watanabe, Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Arai, Raku & Shino Suzuki

Yuki Arai will wrestle at a Garafes show for the first time.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. GRACE PROJECT Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Captain Grace, Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura Vs Tomoya Hirata, Mizuki Watase, Ultra Soki & HIROYA
2. Special Tag Match: Isami Kodaka & El Desperado Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino
3. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs X

A couple of weeks after Despy appears in TJPW he will then show up in BASARA to team with Isami Kodaka. The two of them were specifically put together for Aijin Tag to fight against.

The Grace Group bus company have their own independent wrestling promotion called GRACE PROJECT. They don’t really have their own roster, save for Captain Grace who is the man in charge of the whole thing. Instead their shows are filled with indie wrestlers from across Japan including those who compete in BASARA. So a lot of familiar faces are showing up in their offer match for the show.

SUPER JAPAN “SANSHIRO TAKAGI 30TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT ~SUPER JAPAN PRO WRESTLING HATAAGE-SEN”, 19/08/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Special Single Match: Yasu Urano Vs Mikiya Sasaki
2. Special Single Match: TAKA Michinoku Vs MIKAMI
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Yuji, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs Fuminori Abe, Takuya Nomura & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa

Looks like Sanshiro Takagi and The Brahman Brothers are going to get their way. For one night Yuji Nagata is going to become Brahman Yuji! That’s bad news for Astronauts and Munenori Sawa because Nagata does look like he has a good bowling arm.

What can I write about a Yasu Urano Vs Mikiya Sasaki match? Nothing much.

Kuroshio TOKYO Japan will also be on the show.

Shunma Tears His ACL Again, DDT Lineups For July, ZSJ At Wrestle Peter Pan

July 4, 2025

During the week Shunma Katsumata injured his knee during practice and was diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee. He will be out of action for a while. It is the same injury he suffered last November that kept him on the shelf until this past March so he is having rotten luck with his health lately. A lot of his matches for July were already booked so plenty of show lineups had to be changed around because of his injury.

DDT “YOKOHAMA NIGHT SPLASH”, 05/07/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Special Single Match: KANON V MJ Paul
2. 5 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Akito Vs Naomi Yoshimura Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuya Koroku
3. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Kazuma Sumi Vs Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Iino, To-y & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Jun Akiyama, Hikaru Sato & Daichi Sato
5. Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Naya Vs HARASHIMA & Soma Takao
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion (c) Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada

Katsumata was meant to team with Yuki Ueno to take on Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida from Harimao. Ueno will now team with Kazuma Sumi.

The public contract signing for the next KO-D Openweight Title match will happen before the show starts.

DDT “JAPAN PARA-WRESTLING FEDERATION PRESENTS CHARITY PRO WRESTLING FESTIVAL ~REIWA 7TH ODAWARA BATTLE~”, 06/07/2025
Kanagawa Odawara Arena Sub-Arena

1. Ilusion Vs Kazuma Sumi
2. Daichi Sato & Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Yuki Ishida
3. Special Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno & Pokotan (w/ Umemaru) Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
4. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul Vs HARASHIMA, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya
5. Special Single Match: KANON Vs Yuya Koroku
6. Uchiyama Kenichi Presents Special 6-Man Tag Match: Tatsumi Fujinami, Yoshiaki Yatsu & Jun Akiyama Vs Yuki Ueno, To-y & Akito
7. Shonan Spirits Co. Ltd. Presents Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Iino Vs Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada

Akito replaces Katsumata to face the legends on Sunday’s show.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN UENO”, 08/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Makoto Oishi & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuya Koroku & Yuki Ishida
2. Dance Vs Idol Battle Without Honor & Humanity ~ Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni
3. Falls Count Anywhere Crocodile Death Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya Vs Jun Akiyama, Daichi Sato & Soma Takao
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y Vs Hikaru Sato & Akito
6. KANON 6th Anniversary Match ~ Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno

With To-y and Hikaru Sato about to face each other for the DDT Extreme Title soon, they’re first going to test each other out in a tag match.

The KO-D Champion and KO-D Tag Team Champions are teaming up together. Two of their opponents will be challenging for the tag titles soon but Soma Takao is sticking out like a sore thumb here.

DDT “ROCK IN RING 2025 ~PLAY THE STRIKES, SHOUT THE CHEERS”, 13/07/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Naomi Yoshimura & Antonio Honda Vs Soma Takao & Yuni
1. 3 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Super Sasadango Machine Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida Vs Chris Brookes, Jun Akiyama & Daichi Sato
3. Special Tag Match: Kosei Fujita & Takeshi Masada Vs To-y & Yuya Koroku
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Masashi Takeda, Ilusion & Haruto Sakuraba Vs MAO, KANON & Kazuma Sumi (w/ KIMIHIRO)
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Akito & Kaisei Takechi Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul
6. DDT Universal Title: Minoru Suzuki (c) Vs Shinya Aoki
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs HARASHIMA

The new champion Kazusada Higuchi instantly attracted one of the best wrestlers in DDT to challenge him for the title. HARASHIMA always wants to fight the strongest wrestlers and admires Higuchi for having the strength to climb back to the top of the mountain after returning from his injuries.

Akito will also be filling in for Katsumata on this show for the all important Kaisei Takechi match.

DAMNATION T.A are really ramping things up. Not only do they have Haruto Sakuraba coming back for his second wrestling match but now Masashi Takeda will be on his team! Ilusion may not even have to do much on the day other than be an annoying little shit to the opponents and that’s second nature to him at this point.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU – DAY 2”, 16/07/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Dedicated To Lafcadio Hearn! Ghost Story Shin-Numabukuro Death Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Akito Vs KANON Vs Soma Takao
*Ghost Story Artist: Hisaya Imabayashi
2. Noryo KING OF DRUNK Decision Match: HARASHIMA Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Shunma Katsumata
3. Special Single Match: Ilusion Vs Kumadori
4. Beer Garden Specialty Customer Lottery 8-Man Tag Match: To-y, Yuki Ueno, MAO, Kazuki Hirata, Antonio Honda, Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku and Yuki Ishida

Ilusion’s behavior has gotten under someone’s skin for them to do something about it. Kumadori has had enough of Ilusion’s cheating and insults so he wants to deal with him one on one.

Just because Katsumata blew out his ACL again doesn’t mean he can’t compete in the KING OF DRUNK contest. He’s still taking part in it as far as I can tell.

DDT “SANKO MANUFACTURING CO., LTD. OME PRESENTS HARASHIMA RETURNS HOME! ~WE’RE HOLDING A SHOW IN OME! WHY? BECAUSE IT’S MY HOMETOWN!~”, 27/07/2025
Sumitomo Metal Mine Arena Ome Sports Hall 1

1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya (c) Vs Jun Akiyama & Daichi Sato
2. HARASHIMA Debut 24th Anniversary Match – Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Togi Makabe & Yasu Urano Vs Shinya Aoki, Shuji Ishikawa & Akito

The brand new tag team called The Apex are now the KO-D Tag Champs. Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya now have another pair of heavyweights coming to take their new belts. Ever since Daichi Sato became a full fledged member of DDT he’s been teaming with Jun Akiyama a lot. The legend has seen to it to become the teenager’s mentor and could end up being rewarded for it by with a first time KO-D Tag Title reign.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025 – DAY 1”, 30/08/2025
Tokyo Higashin Arena Main Arena

1. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

Zack Sabre Jr. will be on the show. Looks like he will only be on Day 1 of “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025” and not Day 2.
